The L.A. Times reports that the former governor has admitted to having an affair with an employee who worked in the family's home. Over a decade ago, this affair produces a child, whom Schwarzenegger has been supporting since birth. The staffer worked for the family for years and recently retired with a severance package.

In a statement given to the L.A. Times, Maria Shiver said, "This is a painful and heartbreaking time. As a mother my concern is for the children. I ask for compassion, respect and privacy as my children and I try to rebuild our lives and heal. I will have no further comment."

I feel so awful for everyone involved. Except Arnold, that is. Last week, many commenters (myself included!) hoped that Maria and Arnold could work out their problems and reunite. But in the wake of this huge news, do you still feel the same way?
